I just got back from MSP-PDX-NRT-SIN and ICN-NRT-MSP

i was talking to the lead FA on a couple flights and mentioned the order they go around and ask about the food but it also came up that probably 30% of WBC is not Elite at all. There are a number of non-elites that go to ASIA or Europe 1 time a yr and that is all they travel.

Sometimes they leave out the fight itin for WBC take a look at it, you will see the mix. I would also say a majority of them are silver over gold/plat. Maybe just the two flights i was on, still not a very good study, but an observation what i heave seen.
